Markarian 501的多波长观测

Multi-wavelength Observations of Markarian 501

Daniel Gall

摘要:

甚高能量(VHE;伽马射线耀变体Markarian 501具有极端光谱变化的历史,是研究活动星系核喷流内物理过程的绝佳实验室。2009年3月,利用朱雀X射线卫星以及VERITAS和MAGIC实验协调了对Markarian 501的短期多波长研究,以涵盖关键的X射线和VHE伽马射线波段。VERITAS和朱雀的静止状态观测结果与费米伽马射线太空望远镜的公共数据相结合,并与极端爆发期间的源的历史观测进行比较,以检查光谱可变性,特别是光谱能量分布如何随通量变化。

英文摘要:

The very high energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) gamma-ray blazar Markarian 501 has a history of extreme spectral variability and is an excellent laboratory for studying the physical processes within the jets of active galactic nuclei. A short term multi-wavelength study of Markarian 501 was coordinated in March 2009 using the Suzaku X-ray satellite as well as the VERITAS and MAGIC experiments to cover the critical X-ray and VHE gamma-ray bands. The results of the quiescent-state observations with VERITAS and Suzaku are combined with public data from the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope and compared to historical observations of the source during an extreme outburst, to examine the spectral variability, particularly how the spectral energy distribution varies with flux.
